50 Cent and Fat Joe Team Up on DJ Kay Slay's "Free Again"

Although they're two of New York's best-known rap exports, Fat Joe and 50 Cent have not always had the friendliest history—more accurately, they've had one of the city's biggest beefs. But after coming together for a Chris Lighty tribute at the BET Awards in 2012, the two have supposedly been on good terms.

Now, facilitated by DJ Kay Slay, who's been releasing a slew of other songs featuring some of New York's finest MCs, the two are finally together on a track. It's called "Free Again," and it debuted tonight on Funkmaster Flex's radio show on Hot 97. It's full of serious New York bars, as the two reflect on their pasts. Joe discusses his time in prison ("Shout out to you-know you/let me fuck in the chapel") and 50 lobs some taunts ("The fuck you think I am? Kanye?/I had them wearing vestes/Now these niggas wear dresses").
